[comp.graphics] RT/1: Opinions Please

whalen@DPW.COM (Rachel Whalen) (11/29/90)

Is RT/1 actually used in the real world, or is it mostly just used for
educational purposes?  How important/essential is it?
Would it be redundant to learn both RT/1 and C?

The School for Visual Arts offers a ``Introduction to RT/1'' class,
and as a raw computer graphics beginner (experience in Basic, Pascal,
limited experience C), I'm trying to decide whether or not to take it.

I would appreciate any opinions, real life experience, dogma, etc.

Thanks very much.
